It Needs To BE CED

It Needs To BE CED

Who is BIG CED?

Before there was social media, you had Big Ced, a gatherer of people. He is more than a promoter or socialite. He hand picked people he liked or felt had some value and invited them to local bars, restaurants, night clubs, sporting events and various other places they probably had never been.

His ability to bring ground breaking thinkers, music artists, athletes, directors, models and moguls together is quite unique. Even in 2016, he continues to collect a eclectic group of movers and shakers.

I imagine he believes in you, before you believe in yourself.

He is a pioneering writer on the internet, before the word blogger and continues to use the platform to make social change.

Well, he has a brilliant mind, so witty and funny. At first I thought he’d be the average then he just started to shine… Kevin Hart is one of the funniest guys out right now… oh I’m sorry…

Big Ced? Well, I think he used to work for the circus as the bearded lady… well, that’s rumor so don’t quote me but Ced is like a switch board and a lot of information passes through him…

Ok, Ced can you pay me now?

#Positive I think Big Ced is one of the most honest, passionate and sincere people in the music industry. It’s rare that I come across people who I genuinely admire and respect but he’s one of them. In a world full of hate, he shows nothing but love.

BIG CED is an industry professional with a magnanimous personality and a smile to match. For almost twenty years, I have relied on BIG CED to enlighten his networks about my clients and good deeds and he has never once closed his door or acted like he didn’t care, and for that I am eternally grateful. Through his career transitions and evolutions, BIG CED has remained humble and authentic and ALWAYS reachable. In the media landscape it’s common to lose touch with people but through my different career moves, BIG CED has always been just a phone call away. Cheers to BIG CED and may everything he touches be as sincere as he is.

I’ve known Big CED for almost 20 years now, and what I like about him most is that he’s still the same person now that he was back then! In this business it’s hard to find genuine people, especially because the power of one’s network along with success and money can often times change someone’s character. But not CED, he is one of the most coolest people I know, and is also the only guy that I can call a smart-ass, but in a cool way (haha). In addition, CED is very opinionated, he’s a realist, and you always know where you stand with him.

I’ve had the pleasure and some displeasure knowing Big Ced for the better half of 40 years! I’ve watched him create himself several dozen times for various reasons both professionally and personally. I’ve seen him change for family, for women, for work, for school & by choice. I could call him an innovator, I could call him a copycat, I have called him a promoter, an enthusiast, a writer, and a knucklehead and that was all on the same day. He’s been very fortunate with relationships that have allowed him to continue to rise to many varied occasions & He has not allowed the naysayers & detractors to destroy how great he is to himself or how great he could be in real life. He’s a pretty good friend, when he’s not giving advice, he’s a damn good son, but not always a good brother. He has taken shots, knots, go aways and plenty of Hell No Ced…but like the famous Timex slogan…he has kept on ticking…he’s A King In His Own Right or Mind…and he’s sometimes just too much…but when given the oppo…
